Destinee Hooker Is One Unique College Athlete

Total Pro Sports – It is the type of name you would expect to find at your local gentlemen’s club collecting Pacman Jones‘ dollar bills, but if you want to see Destinee Hooker in action, that is not the place. Instead, you may want to try the Texas Longhorns volleyball court.

Destinee was recently named Offensive Player of the Week in Volleyball by ESPN, however some may find her name to be even more offensive than her game. She is a 6-4 senior from San Antonio Texas and has also made her mark in high jump. In 2008-09 she was named the Big 12 Female Athlete of the Year, which as stated by FTR Sports, “is a lot nicer than what her parents named her.”

You would expect the name Destinee Hooker to be much like Geeves. When you give you child one of these names, in many cases you have already determined their future occupation. She is still young, but it appears that Destinee has thankfully avoided her true calling.
